Is it possible to display the Version Number somewhere in the compiled application?

ukmoths · Dec 10, 2024

Hi, I’m using the auto-increment version number functionality which is quite useful, and works well. However, I would like if possible to display this somewhere in the application (e.g. In the menu “About” box) which would be useful in troubleshooting.

Is this possible? I realise it would be possible to manually add the version into say the html footer area, but it would be preferable to use the internal autoincrementing version number automatically.

Thanks!
Ian.

Sure, it’s possible by using JavaScript code:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript">

function DemoCallback(content) {
  document.getElementById('demo').outerHTML = '<p>' + content + '</p>'; 
 }    
</script>

<div id="demo"></div>  

<script language="JavaScript">
exeoutput.GetString("SPubVersion", DemoCallback);
</script>
